some people say that the only reason for learning a foreign language is in order to travel to or work in a foreign country. others say that these are not the only reasons why someone should learn a foreign language. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

A French proverb says: ”A man who knows two languages is worth two men.”
However
, some
people
think there is just
one
reason for learning a new
language
and
that is
travelling abroad or having a job there.
Although
there are some other
people
who believe there should be more reason for
language
learning. I agree with the latter group and will discuss my idea in the following paragraphs. On the
one
hand, it is obvious that immigration and travelling to a new country need some
language
skills.
That is
because either working or travelling needs communication with local
people
and even if your destination or responsibilities is prescheduled there is
also
the possibility of facing and dealing with natives out of plan. For ,example in ,Colombia if you do not know Spanish you will probably run into trouble

because in that country there is always the possibility of needing local
people
.
On the other hand
, there are so many other reasons for learning a new
language
.
Language
is
one
of human’s achievements
which

is not totally dedicated to
one
special place. For ,instance Spanish may be related to Spain but it is
also
spoken in some other countries. A

to mankind's achievements more than places. For illustration some literary masterpieces like “Searching for the lost times” does not belong to France only, it is a universal text which belongs to all Francophones no matter where they are or their nationality is. If the human does not know another
language
surely will lose pleasure and maybe stay back on some levels. Nowadays, learning languages is
one
of the most important and somehow urgent skills.
That is
because, it helps
people
to get closer to each other, gain more of the current diversity of cultural products.
Furthermore
, the number of cultural phenomena is so high which does not give to all translators the opportunity of translating everything, so
people
will need themselves in
this
condition. In conclusion,
although
some
people
believe
second
or
third
languages are required for trips or businesses, there are a lot of minds in
this
world who believe
this
skill will be needed for more than that. In
this
regard, I believe being bilingual or even multilingual helps us to be more effective and productive in our lives.
